And I shall! Second tech tip of the day, who would’ve thought it! So #genealogy folks who have either an iPhone or iPad, this is for you. (Android folks, stay tuned - I may have a similar way)

Here’s how you can get TweetDeck as an app.

Firstly, what you’ll want to do is open up TweetDeck on Safari on your device (it has to be Safari, from what I’ve tried) and make sure you sign into your account. Once you’ve done that, and your TweetDeck has appeared. Hit the share button (box with an up arrow - as shown)

Once you’ve done that, scroll down the options and select “Add to Home Screen”.

When it asks you what to name it, just make sure it’s named Tweetdeck or something to help you remember that this will be TweetDeck. Then press add.

Now it has added it to your homescreen. Now all that’s left to do is sign into Tweetdeck again but through the newly added icon on your homescreen & then hey presto, you’re there! (Unofficial) Tweetdeck app for iPhone and iPad.

And for those wondering how different it looks, it doesn’t. All that’s different is there’s no browser address bar and buttons at the top.

Also paging @Flominator & @tmlgenealogy as they were asking about this too.
